Setup the agent for development

This document explain all steps in order to set up IDE and start the agent for development.

Set up the Agent

• Select PyDev prospective.

• Compile all c++ libraries. Run script "compile_all.py" from "make" project.

• If compilation was complete correctly, you will see in the console something like:

• Create config.json. Run script "create_config.py" from "make" project.

• If config.json was generated, you will see the file in "core" project.

• Now you are ready to start the agent. Run script "agent.py" from "core" project.
